Looking to buy a gemstone ring for our anniversary. None of the Canadian jewelry stores I checked (Michael Hill- People’s) provide a GIA certificate with their jewelry. Is this a red flag? I fear paying $ for jewelry that’s not certified. Suggestions!

Hi Fishes,
I am working as an Senior Systems Engineer in Infosys at 3.9 LPA. I have around 2 years of experience. My Skill set is Informatica Power Centre, Teradata, SQL, Python, Tableau, Autosys (batch scheduler) and advanced excel. I am looking for a switch, how much compensation/salary would be fair to ask on the basis of my experience and skill set?

We’re starting to interview for my copywriter partner this week, but I don’t have any creative leadership above me (I’m also the only creative with agency experience at the company) so I’m nervous about being the only one looking at prospective partners.

Any tips for good questions to ask to feel out who is the best fit? I’ve worked with great and not so great writers in the past and it wasn’t always clear which would end up being the not so great based on their books.

I'm two thirds through the PMA Core Certification, and the info is great but the tests are a joke. They need to contract with an educator that specializes in testing and assessment to come in and develop exams that actually measure if you know the material. The bad test design devalues the certification. Not to zero, but I definitely will not be proud to have earned it. It just means I had $1300 and sat through 15 hours of video lectures.

Making the switch from plaintiff to defense L&E in January. Would love any and all tips from people who’ve made the jump (including partners who may have supervised these types of attorneys!)

I’m looking to switch career from data analyst to interior designer. But from what I saw the interior designer has a relatively lower pay compared with data jobs. What should I do? Interior design work makes me happy but it earns less. How do you guys see about salary cut after transitioning careers, especially I need to re-attend school ( not making money for 2+ years and pay for tuition) if I want to switch the career. Thanks!

I have a career question. Is it possible to switch careers from copywriting to sales?

For those in NYC - my favorite second hand luxury reseller (based in Paris) is in NYC next week for a pop-up. Their service is super professional and their selection of products is great. If folks are interested I am happy to add their info. I’ve been selling and buying from them since more than 5 years and have always been super happy with the service so wanted to share the tips ☺️ (not an ad, and not sponsored)

Need the 101 on how to work with SAs at luxury boutiques as a first-time buyer. Do you “shop around” until you find one you like? If something isn’t in stock, do they text you proactively? Would love to hear how you all developed relationships.

Does anybody else see no point in splurging on luxury goods at the moment? Don’t get me wrong, I still love a bit of Cartier and Dior, but what’s the point when we can’t really go anywhere?

Anyone have the newer, smaller Cartier JUC? If so, is it a practical don’t take off/wear it everyday bracelet? Would it work to stack with the Love (if you have it)? Thank you in advice for any advice. :)
